Imagine if Danny had Ricky, JT, ZT, and CW. Man oh man, it just sucks to constantly imagine what could have been.

Re: Rewind -Dan Marino Highlights

Finhead, you're breaking my heart. None of the coaches after Shula understood the importance of having a great quarterback to lead the Dolphins. They all thought they could get by on average or has-beens. Shula coached Johnny Unitas, Earl Morrall, Bob Griese, and Dan Marino ... 3 hall of famers.

Some franchises never have a great QB leading their team and Miami went through two hall of fame quarterbacks.

The poise that Marino had with those ridiculous laser beams he threw. It sometimes makes me sick to look back during all those great times.

Now the question is, can Tannehill turn into something special?

because the NFC had too many dynastys, and the Bills were a more complete team tha us for a long stretch. Back then, the best stayed the best. Now it's easier for a variety of teams to win titles.

Re: Rewind -Dan Marino Highlights

Those were the days. From 1983 to 1999 Miami was in the playoffs 10 years. They had only one season with a sub .500 record. And as a fan I felt they were a playoff contender almost every year and had a legit shot of going to the super bowl. And that was when Buffalo went to the super bowl in 1990, 1991, 1992 & 1993 and lost all 4.

Re: Rewind -Dan Marino Highlights

I always thought it would end like it did for Elway, finally winning it in the end.
